Burrswood has been amazing for my mum and us as a family, it was a massive decision for us for mum to move here, the staff made this decision easier for us with there kind understanding and reasurance that they would take care off her. They are doing an amazing job, from the cleaners to the carers,
they have all been amazing.

My mother has only been in Burrswood for four weeks. The staff are friendly and respectful. As soon as my mum arrived the home arranged a district nurse to see her we are always kept uptodate with my mums progress. As a family we feel we can approach the staff and discuss mums needs and we feel this
is taken notice of.

It is so comforting that my sister is now in this very special place. Previous carehomes were not up to any reasonable standard. So much so that I had come to think that their standard of care was the norm. Burrswood has definitely changed my opinion. Congratulations to all involved.

The staff are very good, they interact with them and make sure they have everything they need. They can't do enough for residents and families concerned. Hank you all. My husband is content and settled down with the staff, they really look after him.

We visit our friendly regularly and are always welcomed by friendly and approachable staff. The care is a great improvement on previous experience and clinical care is excellent.

From the minute I was in touch with Burrswood Care Home I was truly impressed. The girls and gents are just lovely...
On visiting weekly nothing seems to be any trouble at all.
Always polite and no hesitation gains the extra mile.

We cannot fault the care shown by the staff at Burrswood. My husband was in Kay Unit and was suffering from mixed dementia. The staff were lovely and caring. There was a friendly atmosphere on the unit and the staff couldn't be more helpful.
My husband enjoyed the food very much and care was
always taken to make sure the residents had plenty of drinks.
The rooms and common areas were cleaned regularly. His clothes were always washed, ironed and returned quickly.
We could visit whenever we wished and offered tea or coffee or we could use the kitchen.
During his final days the nursing care was excellent and the staff couldn't do enough for him and for us.
It was so nice that members of staff attended his funeral.
I would recommend Burswood to anyone needing residential for care for a loved one.

He was diagnosed with lung cancer and given a short time to live,,the staff made his last few months so comfortable, talking to him, comforting him they
called in to chat to him often,,this made my torment bearable knowing he was in good hands,The staff were friendly ,always a smile when i came to visit and i was always made welcome,,I was kept updated regularly on the changes of medication and his condition as it deteriorated over the 3 months he resided at Burrswood,,
I will always be grateful to the Staff,,Thank you for your devotion to the work you do caring for those in need at the end of their lives,,THANK YOU

The care given to my mum by the team on the Crompton unit is exceptional. My mum has advanced mixed dementia and quickly went from living at home with my dad to hospital and then Crompton. We couldn't have asked for a nicer team and with the added support from management who embraced our family,
especially my dad who challenged everything at the beginning because, after fifty-five years marriage, he knows my mum best. We now feel part of the Crompton team and although hard to accept we can't care for Mum at home, we couldn't ask for a better place than Burrswood Care Home.

Burswood Care Home made the last three difficult months for my mother the best we could have hoped for. All the staff were helpful, caring and empathetic. A big shout out to seeing them at Mum's funeral yesterday, it was a very touching tribute from them. A special mention to a member of staff, in
particular, who was always on hand to sort potential issues, keep doing what you were born to do! Caring for the most vulnerable who need dignity in their final years.

My experience has been positive since my husband came to Burrswood Care Home. All staff have been very helpful and considerate.

My wife entered Burrswood Care Home with terminal lung cancer and her doctor had said that she may last hours or days. She was placed in a well-appointed room in a very comfortable bed with an air mattress. My daughter, son and I were told from the start that we could visit her 24/7. It was
immediately apparent that the staff actually cared deeply for her well-being; it was not just a job! Her comfort and pain relief were monitored hourly and she was regularly re-positioned to add to her comfort. When we visited, we were given refreshments and made welcome. We were encouraged to ask questions which they answered. My daughter stayed every night and on the sixth night, all three of us stayed since the end appeared near and she did leave this life that night. We could not fault the staff in any way. They cared for her as if she were family, with love and close attention. At the end, they were equally caring for our family. I cannot praise the staff too highly. They were superb.

The staff and management always put the residents' care and needs as a priority. The staff know and acknowledges the individualism of each resident meeting their needs and requirements as necessary. Residents' family, friends and visitors are always made to feel welcome and are kept informed.

Nice staff who are very friendly and Mum seems to like them and they like her. Some staff have been there for years so this is comforting. She is clean (apart from her nails sometimes). I am happy for her to be there and would recommend it to other people.

My father has been in Burrswood Care Home for over twelve months and seems quite settled now although it was difficult in the early days. He is on Kay unit which specialises in dementia care - he has good days and less good days with his condition but on the less good days, the staff are always
patient and kind with him.
The care home itself has had a very difficult twelve months or so which has played out in the public domain. They are very much coming out of the other side of these issues with the recent CQC audit, a reflection of the hard work and effort that has gone into turning the home round. Well done all.
My only challenge back is on the cost which increased by over 10% this year although, to be fair to the local team, they can't influence this as it is a head office decision. However, with a higher cost comes higher expectations and so they need to keep improving and delivering.

My 104-year-old mother is now the oldest in the home. She has old age dementia. She has been in the home since February 2021. She has settled very well in the home and has been looked after by caring staff. The staff work hard and have a great deal of kindness and patience with the residents. The
manager and his team work hard and are extremely helpful. Should you ever have any questions or concerns they always go out of their way to help you.
